OPTIONS
This is GALLEON's best shot at a hit. It has 'major-label single' written all over it. Of course, listen and judge for yourself!
TAPIOLA
Tapiola is a town in Finland where Joey Bolnick met his first wife. As you listen to his lyrics you can hear Bolnick's ambivalence about that relationship. Do not confuse this song with the classical piece "Tapiola" composed by Jean Sibelius.

GALLEON is an Atlanta-based musical group which is making music great again and steadfastly believes life is too short to settle for ordinary music. Comprised of Elliott & June Michaels, William Easterling, Andre Fountain, and now seeking other musicians to complete their sound, this electric outfit plays a variety of tasteful, well-crafted original rock, folk-rock, and modern country songs; and performing it all with a very high level of professionalism and our own unique and special style. Thus, the band makes music that sails above and beyond all the rest!
The chemistry and camaraderie among musical partners William, June, and Elliott is most evident in Galleon's cohesive and assertive sound, imposing stage presence, and commanding performance. The group appears often at Atlanta-area clubs and concert events, and they now seek other well-qualified musicians (bass, drums, lead guitar, saxophone) to complete their sound as they look forward to playing their special brand of music throughout the Southeastern United States now that the virus crisis has blown out to sea.

SUPPORT LOCAL MUSIC AND ARTISTIC FREEDOM ... FIGHT CENSORSHIP AND BOYCOTT PAY-TO-PLAY!!!
GALLEON has been together in one form or another since winter 1994, when transplanted New York/Los Angeles musician Elliott Michaels decided to buckle down and form a band he could truly call his own. Michaels has been lucky and grateful to work with many talented musicians in Galleon over its long existence, and is now looking to develop its strongest lineup yet so he can take the band into the studio in the near future to make professional recordings of their original songs.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
Anything and everything from Sinatra, Martin & Davis to Emerson, Lake & Palmer to Tony Orlando & Dawn; from the Allman Brothers to the Osmond Brothers; from Black Sabbath to Blake Shelton; from the Beatles to the Lennon Sisters; from Cream to the Supremes; from Robin Trower to Barry Manilow; from the Captain & Tenille to Captain Beyond; from George Jones to George Lynch! But our music, sound and style are our own and no one else's ... and we wish to be judged on the quality of our music and our performances, NOT ON OUR LOOKS!
We rock hard and boldly, but we're not afraid to add acoustic instrumentation when appropriate. A little variety is not a bad thing as long as you have the talent to make it work!
Varies depending on the size of the venue we're booked to play.
